Before you choose

Tax write-offs reduce qualifying income, so the loan officer must know both agency self-employed rules and alternative documentation options.

  • How will you calculate my income from my tax returns?
  • Would a bank statement or P&L loan qualify me for more?
  • Do I need two years of self-employment history?

How this list is ranked

Specialty evidence carries the most weight (production data, then lender page, then self-reported). Loan officers must be licensed in SD or have a branch there. Then branch location, years licensed and profile completeness. Disciplinary actions lower the score and are always shown. No paid placement. Methodology.
